Is the volcano hekla along convergent or divergent plate boundaries?

Hekla volcano is located along a divergent plate boundary in Iceland, where the North American and Eurasian plates are moving apart. This movement creates rift zones where volcanic activity is common, including Hekla.


Is the El chichon volcano located along colliding plate boundaries?

Yes, the El Chichon volcano is located along the boundary between the North American Plate and the Cocos Plate in southern Mexico. This boundary is a convergent plate boundary where the Cocos Plate is being subducted beneath the North American Plate, leading to magma generation and volcanic activity.


Does Terrane accretion generally occurs along a divergent boundary between a continental plate and an oceanic plate?

Terrane accretion typically occurs along a convergent boundary where two tectonic plates collide, rather than along a divergent boundary where they move apart. This process involves the collision and subsequent attachment of different crustal blocks or terranes to a continental margin or another terrane.


Along which type of tectonic plate boundary has the soufriere hills volcano formed?

its a convergent plate boundary between either the North American or South American Plate and the Caribbean plate. It's not fully understood which of the two plates is descending underneath the Caribbean plate. Edited: It is a oceanic-continental convergent boundary. The Atlantic and the Caribbean plates.


Is the Erta Ale volcano along converging plate boundaries?

No. Erta Ale is in the East African Rift, which is a divergent boundary in the early stages of development.

Is the volcano of mount st Helens wa along a fault or a plate boundary?

Yes. Mount St Helens is near the boundary between the North American Plate and the Juan de Fuca Plate.


What type of plate boundary is Popocatepetl at?

Convergent, divergent, or maybe a transform boundary. Choose any one you want to.


What causes a transform boundary?

A transform boundary occurs when two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This movement causes earthquakes along the boundary due to the friction and pressure from the plates interacting.
